title: A macro view on human resources for health in Turkey.
abstract: This study aims to make an assessment of the current status of human resources for health in Turkey and to bring a new perspective to key issues in the development of human resources for health within the framework of a macro approach. Although a number of issues are covered in human resources for health (HRH) studies which need to be handled carefully, this study focuses on the number of health personnel, health personnel efficiency, geographic distribution, education and financing of health personnel, and migration.
